Description

A pair of 18th-century timber-framed and plastered cottages, known as Ebenezer Cottage and Coppers. Each cottage is one storey high with attics.

The roofs are tiled, with four gabled dormers. Ebenezer Cottage and Coppers are part of a group of buildings of local interest which includes Boreham Manor North, Boreham Manor South, Babylon, the Old Rectory, the Church of St Andrew, Boreham Lodge, the Old Vicarage, Church Cottages (numbered 1 to 4), and McMillan's Cottages (numbered 1 and 2).
